Shaking my head over this one

From the AP wires today:

A defiant Saddam Hussein admitted in court Wednesday that he ordered the trial of 148 Shiites eventually executed in the 1980s, but he insisted that doing so was legal because they were suspected in an assassination attempt against him. "Where is the crime? Where is the crime?" Saddam asked.

I'll answer that one. When you're randomly razing the land and killing poor farmers because you want their property, just because you're the President and you can, that's a crime against humanness.
